The 95.5 frequency started out playing classic rock as The Hawk. In the late 2000s, The Hawk moved to 103.7. 95.5 became '90s based adult hits Channel 95.5 obtaining the KCHH call sign. On April 15, 2011, KCHH changed its format from adult hits (as "Channel 95") to news/talk (simulcasting KBUL 970 AM), branded as "News Radio 95".

In August 2022, KCHH dropped its news/talk format, which continued on KBUL 970 AM Billings, and began stunting.[8]

On November 21, 2022, KCHH ended stunting and launched a Christmas music format. The station segued to its adult contemporary format, branded as "95.5 LITE-FM", on January 1, 2023.[9]
